Letter: Military could help with school violence

Chico has too many schools to provide police protection to schools from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. — it would cost a fortune. President Barack Obama could sign a special order to have military personnel assigned to all schools nationwide ASAP.

In World War II, FDR stopped a very dangerous street problem in California by arranging to have military personnel placed in downtown Los Angles for two weekends. The problem disappeared. I know, I was there.
